- Abstract
Blue, pink, and yellow colorations appear from twisted bi-layer graphene (tBLG) when transferred to a SiO2/Si substrate (SiO2 = 100 nm-thick). Raman and electron microscope studies reveal that these colorations appear for twist angles in the 9-15° range. Optical contrast simulations confirm that the observed colorations are related to the angle-dependent electronic properties of tBLG combined with the reflection that results from the layered structure tBLG/100 nm-thick SiO2/Si.
